About the game
What you do in a play session
Dustbiters is an exclusive two-player game where each player commands a convoy of cars. Your objective is simple yet challenging: destroy all of your opponent's vehicles or ensure yours are the last ones standing. Each turn, you have 3 action points to spend in various ways: drawing a new car into your hand, placing a newly acquired car at the front of your convoy, moving an existing vehicle forward or backward in the line, or activating a special power of one of your cars. And believe me, each machine has its own unique abilities and affects the cars around it in different ways, opening up a range of strategies.
But make no mistake, the dust storm is relentless! At the end of each turn, the car at the very back of your convoy is mercilessly destroyed. This means you need to wisely manage the position of your vehicles, deciding who to sacrifice and who to protect, all while trying to sabotage the opposing convoy. With variable setup each game, Dustbiters ensures that every race is a new and exciting experience, demanding constant adaptation and quick decisions to become the king of the dusty road.
